The new place is Jings Resort on Pala U Road, Fenny Foo refers to the room type not the resort name

Fenny Foo is run by the same people (Peter and Jing), however, they may not be there at times as they also have Jings Resort to look after.
The rooms still get cleaned every day, and a maid is on site from about 8am to 5pm, it can be difficult to get drinking water if nobody is about,, no food of any kind available at Fenny Foo.
I understand that Mermaid have contact details on Facebook, this is the original Jings Guesthouse.
